Question

A dynamo

• A. Creates mechanical energy
• B. Creates electrical energy
• C. Converts electrical energy into mechanical energy
• D. Converts mechanical energy into electrical energy

Answer 1

The correct option is D Converts mechanical energy into electrical energy

Generally a small dynamo require a permanent magnet. Using the Faraday's law of induction, rotating a coil of wire and magnetic fields to convert mechanical rotation into a direct electric current. Thus, a dynamo converts mechanical energy to electrical energy.
